The Wilson is low and clear, and the fishing has been a little slow as a result. But there are still plenty of steelhead in the system and still fish getting caught. The Wilson River has a wild broodstock hatchery run, meaning the hatchery steelhead here are from wild origin. As such they mimic the wild run timing and there will still be bright hatchery steelhead available well into April. This will be one on the best bets for hatchery winter steelhead for the remainder of the season, and there is also catch-and-release opportunities for wild fish.
